Big JoeFri, 16 Sep 2011 20:06:54 +0000http://www.ibabuzz.com/prepcorner/?p=11018#comment-55297My daughter played 4 yrs. college water polo- Div111 ranked 3 yrs in a row- 3rd in Tucson in 2010.
There work outs plus cross-fit training, yoga, pilate,weights and gym were incredible. To tread water in a 12 ft. deep pool all day and swim your ass off(most are ex-swimmers) is not for the faint of heart. she was only 5’8 145lbs but the strongest and mentality tough person on the team, playing attacker. I’m an ex- football jock along with my buddies, including college, and I say this:
There’s NO WAY most football players could take those kind of work-outs and game conditions without 100 % exhaustion. The players might look attractive and fit, but it’s a war in the pool and they can draw blood on any given play- lots of elbows and kicks. It’s what goes on under the water what you don’t see. Also concussions and broken noses can happen with that ball coming in very fast near the goal, no face masks!
Hail to FEMALE jocks, they are tough!

Should be some great talent in the Cove and fun to watch!
